A bacterial culture has minimal nutritional requirements. It is exposed to a mutagen and then plated out on a medium with all necessary nutrients. Individual colonies are tested to grow on minimal media. The cell lines unable to grow on minimal media are mutants. The genome of one of the mutant cell line is sequenced and a 2-nucleotide segment of DNA has been deleted. This is most likely what kind of mutation?
